I finished this cardigan for my teenage daughter and now my husband wants one as well. My daughter wanted her pockets lower and the ribbing on the top so she could put her cellphone in it. She is so pleased with it. It has some minors imperfections but that's why it makes it special. Now, my work is set up for the next week or so so my better half can have his. On a side note, it isn't really beginner friendly if I may say as it requires a lot of counting and measurement. My take on😉. Thank you for the tutorial.
this is a wonderful sweater. I have made 3. I did the size by hook and size yarn, added to sleeve and made it longer. now to put in pockets on the "inside" of the front, for easy concealment of wallet and cell phone. I just love this pattern, I have 3 planned for next Christmas, I just got my yarn.
I did it. It’s not perfect. But it’s done. I’ve never done anything like this before so this is an accomplishment. Thank you so so much for the tutorial
I had such a challenge doing this. My store had no 3 ply wool blend. So I had to get 4 ply acrylic. Then I had to decrease the hook to a J, 6 mm to get the gauge. The body did fine, though the size ran much larger than expected. Your pattern mentioned # st, but it would have been so better In judging the ending sizes of total inches after foundation st completed-after body was completed, etc. Continuing the pattern, the sleeve was so huge and long-it would have fit an orangutan. I had to frog it, then it took 4 times of trial and horrors to get a workable length with appropriate increases to match the # st required to fit around the areas that would become the armholes. Then the total length of the collar was 3.5 inches too short each end to correspond with the total length of the sweater. I also made a tie belt for it. It is the size of a coat, using 4 skeins of the 4 ply worsted. It is quite warm and snuggly. But it was a long drawn out process trying to make having to use what was available.
I just finished mine and absolutely adore it, thank you for such a wonderful pattern and videos! I bought the pattern as well to have it. My sleeves are long but I actually prefer them that way, I just roll them up once or twice and it looks great.
HOTH. On this day, i finished this project!!!! I love it, has a minor imperfections only i know and its all mine, so loving comfy. Thank you for showing me how
Thank you for the awesome tutorial and direction. I did the large the body came out great but the collar for the large was too short. After pinning every 2 rows then finding it too short I gave up.
Hi Maryann - I'm so sorry for the mix-up. The video tutorial was cut short when it was uploaded to UA-cam. Here is the full video for Part 1. Thank you for your understanding! ua-cam.com/video/bLoSQifTCDY/v-deo.html
I did mines and these sizes run 2 sizes big. Fyi I usually buy size large in stores so I followed large but its huge on me. Came out like a size 1x or 2x. .
I think what you are calling the front loop is actually the front bar. I still like the look of going into the front bar...you will get a different look if you go into the actual front loop... with going into the front bar you get the two loops that look like a V if you go into the actual front loop you get just one loop that will look like a straight line...both look nice you just have to make sure that you do the same all the way across if not it will look strange...just my thoughts.
Jess I would like to know if you have used “Yarn Bee” thread ? There is one that is 100% Tencel. Have you tried this and if so what do you think about how it crochets and how it hangs after sweater is made? I am in the process of using this to make the date cardigan.
Hey Carolyn, no, I actually haven't. When I google it, I see that maybe it's called Fresh Haven? It seems like it might be a bit heavier than the yarn I used in the Day Date cardigan, which means you might want to make one size smaller than you want to wear. The great thing about that pattern though is that you can try it on as you go so you can get an idea of how it's fitting. :)
Thank you for taking the time to show such lovely and simple pattern. I really wanna do it! 😁 Just quick question, how many yarn cakes would I need to make a size M project please? Thank you.

Hi, me again. Another question i have. Im working on the collar and my question is this: once i reach my increase ( doing a medium so it states 25 sts) do i do rows 12, 13, 14? Then the additional rows before i do the decrease side? Or do i go to the additional rows from row 11?
I didn’t understand the shoulder area, it is not clear for me where should I sew the ends of the shoulder. If someone can explain here. Sorry guys I’m total beginner
I’m at the beginning and I’m worried that my sweater will be too big. My initial chain yielded a length of 50 inches. Is that too long? I’m using the yarn and size k needle just like you used. Help please.
Thanks for posting this! I have a question about the collar, which I thought I had posted on your blog but maybe it didn't go through. I know the increases and decreases are supposed to be on the same side to create the curve, but after doing the last repeat of row 11 and the six even rows, I'm on the wrong side of the work for the decreases (the straight edge). I've counted a few times, and I have the correct number of rows, but it seems like doing an even number of rows in the "working even" section will always result is the decrease section starting along the straight edge. Am I counting wrong, or should I add a seventh row of even count? I don't want to have a collar that's too long and won't match up with the sweater edge.
Hey Nicole, I'd suggest just adding the extra row it seems like you need. You can accomodate a bit of extra collar length at the back of the neck if necessary and keep all the rows lined up in the collar front and sweater front pieces. Hope that makes sense!
I’m at that exact point on my sweater right now and the same thing is happening to me - after working row 11 on the collar and 4 more repeats of row 2 I’m ending up on the straight side, not the increase side. I guess I’ll just add one more row (for a total of 5 repeats of row 2) and hope it turns out OK when I start sewing it all together😎
finished, but the sleeves came out wayyyyy toooo long and even the jacket was too long..i did the medium one...I finished, and then I just cut the sleeves to the size i wanted and then seemed up the ends and added a new cuff that was tapered...came out pretty good...just huge, but its comfy
@@makedocrew1717 I'm so happy I came across your channel. Honestly! Now I'm just watching your videos and getting to know the basics (I'm a very beginner) but I'll make a cardigan "with you" one day ;)
Hey Pauletta, I'm sorry your sleeves are turning out long! Do you happen to know if they're matching the pattern gauge? I'd love to know so that can factor that into your feedback. I'm not quite sure why the collar isn't curving. Are all the increases and decreases on one side of the collar? That's what makes the curve happen. If you'd like to take a look at the collar tutorial photos in the blog post, they might also be helpful in troubleshooting the issue. :) makeanddocrew.com/how-to-crochet-long-sleeve-cardigan-video-part-2
Please help. My collar keeps coming out longer than needed when attaching to the sweater. I'm following instructions exactly and for a large. But there are at least 16 extra rows making it bunch up around the neck. I don't understand
Pin the collar to the back and start there and work both sides down to the bottom of the cartigan and tuck the ends under? As opposed to tearing it all apart and starting over.

Awesome work
Thank you!
Got it done, but sleeves are waaaay to long. Followed pattern and gauge,but something is crazy.
Would have liked to see you attach the curved part of the collar at the corners, which are not curved,
I like to work with this yarn.
How many skeins of this yarn is needed to make this sweater?

Working the sleeves separate from the main body is much easier than trying to fight with the whole cartigan while crocheting.

Beauriful. Its not a beginner sweater.
I made the cardigan
That's great! How'd it turn out?
working on this now, but you skipped the sleeve? Is there s section of the tutorial for it?

I’d put the pockets with the opening at the top, safer for my mobile.
Ha - true!
When did we make the sleeve?🤯
I made the cardigan but my sleeves are way too long. I made sure I used same stitches as the pattern. How do I fix the sleeves. They are too long.
My sleeves are very long too. Is there any way to shorten them?
